(Assume all games start at 7:PM and be overjoyed if they start at 7:30)
Big Bear Bears (9-2, De Anza) at Templeton Eagles (9-2, Northern)
The Bears have to make the drive and the Eagles have the momentum. I recommend the Beef Palace for tri tip, and in Atascadero hit Sylvester’s, but at neither of those places will Oso Grande fight the two extra touchdowns they are going to need.

Maranatha Minutemen (11-0, Olympic) at Arrowhead Christian Eagles (10-1, Ambassador)
This game will be heavier than Paul’s letter to the Romans. Each team is well coached, each team has playmakers, each team knows how to win, but only one can be considered Devine.

Nipomo Titans (7-4, Northern) at Shadow Hills Knights (9-2, De Anza)
The Titans have to go to the desert. Indio is nicer than it used to be, but the Knights will be playing a team with big game experience. It should be good, should be tight for a while, but the Shadow Hills offense is one dimensional. Titans.

Linfield Christian Lions (7-4, Ambassador) vs. Pasadena Poly (11-0, Prep)
At South Pasadena High School
The Panthers have had a great season, but are cruisin’ for a bruising…The Lions are better than they were when they lost to Poly by three early in the season. They’ve five in a row and Lorenzo Burns can nearly do it all.
